Illegal immigrants will take jobs away from Americans

June 30, 2012

In reference the new immigration plan courtesy of Mr. Obama: if our government allows these young illegal immigrants to remain in this country, is anyone thinking about the fact that these are most likely people in the age group seeking employment and therefore will be taking even more jobs away from American citizens? It appears to be another political ploy to obtain more votes. Does anyone care about the impact this is going to have on our unemployment rate? I'm concerned about job opportunities for my children and grandchildren who will have an even tougher time finding employment thanks to this absurd idea.

I'm all for allowing people come into this country who want to become American citizens by going through the standard process, but allowing this to occur because it will garner more votes for the current president is just plain wrong!
